So for the four Hokies going to the combine that started this morning, here is where we should be looking for the results:
Logan Thomas, QB
February 20th - Medical pre-exam and X-rays, orientation, interviews.
February 21st - Measurements, medical exams, media, interviews, so hopefully the scouts are salivating after the measurements are made official.
February 22nd - Psychological testing, bench press, and additional interviews
February 23rd - On-field workout (timing, stations, skill drills).

The Virginia Tech DB Kyle Fuller and Antone Exum doing well to attempt high-pointing the football. South Carolina's Victor Hampton, as well.— Dion Caputi (@nfldraftupdate) February 25, 2014
In other news, it was good to see that even though Derrick Hopkins didn't get invited to the Combine, he does have a draft profile on NFL.com
Glad that the Washington Post can count when it comes to Hokies, or maybe this is where they realized Derrick should have gotten an invite.
Here's hoping that everything goes well over the next week for these four players and they all improve their draft stock.
What are your thoughts on how each will likely fair? I was surprised to see nothing that indicated Exum would be limited so I hope that means he is 100% and ready to show his stuff.
